6S started remembrance work

In 6S today we started working on Remembrance. Our theme of the work is ‘Peace in Our Hands‘.
After making our poppy in hands pictures we wrote hopes for future peace.

Back to School Blues!

The children who come to NJS are amazing! They have shown that they are resilient and can adapt to different situations. There are some who do need some extra support and there are those who have anxieties returning to school after breaks. Please use the link to access helpful information to put measures in place before Monday morning arrives.

Positive Young Minds

As always we are looking forward to seeing the children for another half term!
